©2020 Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office.Mean calcification rates for the coral Porites rus and alga Hydrolithon onkodes in varying carbonate chemistry conditions. These data are part of a larger data set containing light and dark calcification rates and experimental chemistry conditions, which in turn are part of experiments performed during July-August 2011 in French Polynesia to test the effect of various concentrations of carbonate and bicarbonate ions on the calcification of a coral and a calcifying alga.
